CO Senate considering bill to charge $.25 for using plastic bags

[Irving]

I use all those grocery bags for the cat litter, the dog crap, and to line all the bathroom trash cans. I still have more than I can use though. I often turn down bags at gas stations, liquor stores, or the grocery store if I didn't have a cart to start with. People might think I'm being environmentally conscious, but I just already have too many bags. However, when I have torn bags that I can't use, I at least take the time to tie them in a knot before I throw them away because I don't like seeing them stuck in trees and fences and stuff.

Most grocery stores and Walmart have the recycle bins for them at the front. If they have holes, I throw them in another with holes till it?s full and then into those bins they go.

The ones without get used as trash bags or other uses. I know many that use them as trash bags. Guess we will have to buy more plastic bags just to throw them in landfills.

I didn't know about the recycling, thanks. I wish Amazon would start doing that for their boxes.

Often they are hard to find. Look in the entrance area between the sets of doors. You probably walk right past them and wouldn?t know. I never knew they had them either.
